is linked against 64bits libraries, at least as far as I am correct this<br>
is what say:<br>
<br>
ldd squeakvm<br>
<br>
Next I tested I can run DrGeo (1.4 pharo based, 32 bits image) with this<br>
VM on a 64 bits host (uname -a).<br>
<br>
Pharo 2 does not work as this vm is too old.<br>
<br>
Where am I wrong?<br>

<div class="im HOEnZb">> I do not understand. To compile a regular vm in a 64bits platform is trivial. You just need to have the 32bits library installed.<br>
